Word for Japanese Entertainment Business? - 06-17-2009, 10:20 PM

Hi! I'm writing about the entertainment business for a little school project but I'm not sure what world to choose to do. Acting and music mostly. Does anyone know what word I could use to refer to it? 芸能会 or 芸能界? Something else?

Do you mean a company that trades in Japanese entertainment, or do you mean the institution (aggregation) of Japanese entertainment companies?

What I mean is do you mean "business" as "a company," or "business" like when people refer to "the music industry" or "the Business"?

I think it may make a difference in your translation.
